Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy will brutally open the door to Bryan Gil this summer for a deeply discounted asking price and amid the claims, a wonderful move to the Netherlands is being considered.
The 23-year-old striker moved to north London in the summer of 2021, with Tottenham paying Sevilla a €25 million (£21. 6 million) payment for the player and Erik Lamela being allowed to move in the opposite direction as part of the deal. Given Gil’s reputation at the time as one of Spanish football’s brightest clients, Levy and company seemed like a sensible move at the time.
However, the four-time Spain foreigner has struggled to make his impact felt at Tottenham, appearing in just 42 appearances for the club in all competitions.
And having been loaned out twice, first to Valencia and then to former club Sevilla, Gil was fortunate to get a normal spot under Ange Postecoglou this season.
The player, however, has struggled to carve out a normal place for himself and with the likes of Heung-min Son, Brennan Johnson and Dejan Kulusevski ahead of him in the pecking order. And having made a total of only 11 appearances, adding only two as a starter. During the season, he was pushed even further down the pecking order following the arrival of Timo Werner from Tottenham in January.
While the deal to secure Werner’s loan to Spurs is likely to turn into a €20m permanent transfer this summer, a report earlier this week revealed that Levy had made it clear to Gil that he needed to leave the club permanently, and with the club. ready to endure a mind-blowing loss.
The report claimed that Gil had to return to Andalusia with Sevilla, the club where he had been called and graduated from their academy.
However, new reports in the Netherlands claim that wonderful talks are already underway about a move to Feyenoord and that a move to De Kuip now looks like the most likely situation for the 23-year-old.
To this end, 1908. nl claims that the reigning Eredivisie champions are making efforts to reach an agreement for Gil, having opened “concrete lines” between themselves and his agent.
It has been reported that the Rotterdam club are “thinking very well” about Gil and have a “concrete proposal” to his agent in the hope of reaching an agreement before the summer window opens.
According to the report, Levy will not stand in the way of the Dutch team and has made it clear that he is open to promoting him. However, it is understandable that the Tottenham boss is looking for the highest salary imaginable for a player whose current contract is set to expire in 2026.
As a result, a value relief of between €6 million and €10 million (£5. 1 million to £8. 5 million) will likely be enough to close the deal, and Spurs could even apply for a loan if a credit liability is included. relocation.
However, as Gil himself knows that he will have to move on for the sake of his career, it is hoped that a deal can soon be closed that will ensure that the Spanish foreigner becomes a Feyenoord player from July 1.
